Written question asked by David Drew (Labour) on Monday, 2 September 2019, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 4 September 2019. It was answered by George Freeman (Conservative) on Monday, 9 September 2019 on behalf of the Department for Transport.


Bus Services: Bicycles

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans has he to discuss with bus operators a device to allow buses to carry bicycles by means of an external rack either in front or behind the vehicle.

Answer

It is for individual bus operators to take decisions on whether to fit racks for bicycles on their services. While I currently have no plans to discuss this, I would encourage bus operators to consider fitting such equipment where it is safe and legal to do so.
